These guys have been out on my lake a few times already this winter.  Saw them out again this afternoon and I could not resist any longer.  I bundled up and crossed the lake to find out a little bit more about it.

5 minutes after saying hello and meeting the guys, I was piloting an iceboat solo! 

Basically it's a sailboat mounted onto ice skates.  But with no hull in water to slow it down, it moves just a tiny bit faster than a sailboat.  Like about 50+ MPH today and it was not even all that windy!

It is a crazy good time.  If you ever get the chance, give it a try!

Now there is another toy on my list of things I "need", lol!
